Streets closing near Convention Center for Super Bowl Experience

Second Avenue and Grant Street in front of the Minneapolis Convention Center will close Thursday, Jan. 18 through Thursday, Feb. 8 to accommodate preparations for Super Bowl Experience — an interactive football theme park.

The eastbound/northbound lanes, however, will be open 7 a.m.-9 a.m. and 5:30 p.m.-9 p.m. on Jan. 18-19 and Jan. 22-23.

Additionally, the other streets around the Convention Center will have intermittent closures, including First Avenue South, Third Avenue South and 16th Street East. Event removals will take place Feb. 4-Feb. 8. Streets will reopen thereafter or sooner.

The family friendly event will feature interactive games, youth football clinics, merchandise and autograph sessions. Super Bowl Experience is open daily from Saturday, Jan. 27 through Saturday, Feb. 3.

Over the past several months, the City of Minneapolis has worked closely with stakeholders, including the Minnesota Super Bowl Host Committee, NFL, their vendors and several other local partners to craft a traffic management plan that will enhance the Super Bowl LII experience while providing the minimum disruption to traffic and parking possible.
